Howdy! I'm trying to upgrade a NetBSD-9.0_RC1 install to current but I'm having a strange issue. I followed the documentation for compiling and upgrading netbsd to current exactly but when I try to boot, the bootloader says /netbsd and all the sets can't be found.

Which documentation? There unfortunantly is stuff spread everywhere. Ipersonally would recommend downloading the install kernel and put thesets on a usb stick, and use sysinst to upgrade. It is much more userfriendly, plus it doesn't take near as long.


Good luck.
